About Sentry

Bad software is everywhere, and we’re tired of it. Sentry is on a mission to help developers write better software faster, so we can get back to enjoying technology.

With more than $217 million in funding and 90,000 organizations that believe we’re on to something, we're building performance and error monitoring tools that help companies like Disney, Microsoft, and Atlassian spend less time fixing bugs and more time building products. If you like to selfishly build things that make your digital life better, come help us build the next generation of software monitoring tools.

About the role

The Search and Storage teams are responsible for the infrastructure that powers all of Sentry's time-series data and searching capabilities across billions of events with sub-second latency. We started this initiative by building Snuba, the primary storage and query platform for Sentry's event data powered by ClickHouse, and we're now looking to provide even more visibility and reporting on the terabytes of data that our users send us.

As an engineer on the Search team, you’ll work on the Snuba API and the Snuba Admin tool, where other developers test and manage their features. You’ll have a direct impact throughout the company as you partner with other engineering teams to build delightful user experiences atop Snuba’s search capabilities.

In this role you will

  • Build new features into Snuba, our search platform
  • Build internal tools that other teams use to test, debug and manage their features
  • Collaborate with other engineering teams to build new Sentry features using Snuba
  • Monitor and improve Snuba’s performance to ensure we deliver excellent service to our end users
  • Contribute to our business hours on call rotation and respond to critical issues

You’ll love this job if you

  • Are excited to make building software easier for other developers
  • Enjoy working with distributed systems, especially distributed databases
  • Enjoy working with others to improve scalability and performance
  • Want to dive into database internals like query optimization

Qualifications

  • 3+ years software engineering experience
  • Experience programming in Python
  • Experience building APIs or platforms
  • Strong distributed systems knowledge
  • Experience with frontend technologies
